Priceless Baby’s Super Daddy - Chapter 458

Chapter 458: Satisfy Her Wish

Xu Xiyan only gave a vague answer. After all, it was because of a special situation that Huo Yunshen had brought her back to his house.

“Oh.” Ying Bao puffed out her cheeks, not able to argue with her mother’s answer.

After Xu Xiyan asked about her daughter, she talked with Huo Yunshen about some of his father’s matters.

As they continued chatting, the topic of dinner came up unexpectedly. “I’ll cook tonight. How about we invite Orange and Dazhi over for dinner, too?” Xu Xiyan asked.

“Sure,” Huo Yunshen agreed cheerfully.

Under Xu Xiyan’s influence, he agreed that it was a good thing to hang out with friends more often.

He had always been a lone wolf in the past. After his accident, there hadn’t been anyone by his side he could talk to.

Xu Xiyan looked out the window and said, “Mr. Huo, could you tell the driver to stop at the Fresh Hema Supermarket over there? Let’s go and buy some groceries.”

“Sure.” Huo Yunshen immediately ordered the driver to stop.

Before entering the supermarket, all three of them wore flu-masks over their faces.

Ying Bao sat on Huo Yunshen’s lap as usual as he steered his wheelchair into the supermarket. Xu Xiyan pushed a cart as she followed them. They were like a family of three shopping in a supermarket.

Xu Xiyan was the one who mainly decided what to buy.

She was just like a housewife. When selecting items, she would look carefully at the expiration date and the ingredients of each product.

Sometimes she would ask Huo Yunshen’s and Ying Bao’s opinions. She would ask whether they liked eating something or if there was anything they would like to eat. She would also ask whether there was anything else she had forgotten to get.

Ying Bao was being very diligent. She was very busy moving things that her mother wanted to buy from the shelves into the cart.

Later, Huo Yunshen saw that the seafood in the Fresh Hema Supermarket was good and took Ying Bao to the seafood section. “Cherry, do you want to eat lobster?”

Ying Bao looked at the big lobsters through the glass of the tank. There was a big “yes” written in the sparkles of her little eyes as they darted around looking at the lobsters swimming in the tank.

She still remembered that the only time she had eaten a lobster was when she was still back at Estan. It was Uncle Tree-leaf who had taken her to a restaurant to eat a lobster. It was really delicious.

But her mother had said before that lobsters were super expensive.

Ying Bao knew that her mother could not afford lobsters. She pursed her lips for a moment, then said, “Big lobsters are very expensive and it is very tough for Mommy to make money to afford them. It’s okay, Baby doesn’t have to eat big lobsters. Carrots are good enough for Baby. Mommy said that carrots are just as nutritious.”

“…”

After listening to these words, Huo Yunshen did not know what to say.

Ying Bao was really thoughtful, so thoughtful that he felt bad for her.

If her mother could not afford a lobster for her to eat, he decided that he shall satisfy her wish since she was with him now.

Huo Yunshen beckoned to the sales assistant and said, “Please pack all of the lobsters here for me. I want them all.”

At this time, Xu Xiyan was done buying vegetables and was approaching them. When she heard Huo Yunshen say that he wanted all of the lobsters here, she rushed over to stop him. “Mr. Huo, are you nuts? Why do you want to buy so many lobsters?”

The main point was that a kilogram of lobster costed a few hundred Yuan, and one whole lobster would cost at least a few thousand Yuan. If he were to buy all of them, it would cost an outrageous amount.

It was just dinner. Why the need for extravagance?

From the time she worked part-time during her school days until the time she went abroad and gave birth to her child and raised her, Xu Xiyan had survived by working hard to earn money by herself.

She knew the hardships and difficulties of life, so she believed that every single penny should be spent on where it was most necessary. She would never spend money carelessly.

Though later, her income gradually increased after doing live streams with Ying Bao, she never abandoned her good habit of frugality.

She could never buy a lobster that costed a few thousand Yuan. If she wanted to buy something, she might choose slightly cheaper alternatives such as prawns or greasy back shrimps.

“Cherry loves it.”

Huo Yunshen’s reasoning was very simple. Whether that thing was flying in the sky or running on the ground or swimming in the water, he would get it for his child no matter what, as long she wanted to eat it.
